It is not the first time that the region welcomes such competitions, as they return in 2012 under the banner of Red Bull BC One, the ultimate breaking tournament around the globe, building on the tremendous success of Red Bull BreaKing last year. Lebanon B-Boys have a special rendezvous on May 12th at seven in the evening at Al-Madina Theatre, Hamra Street, as the best B-Boys in the country will compete for the local title.

A jury panel will assess the participants based on 3 criteria: technique, innovation and dance flow. It will include some of best breaking stars in the world such as B-Boy Cico, B-Boy Lamine, B-Boy Lil G. In every round, two B-Boys will have a one-on-one face-off before the Knock Out move and each participant has two chances to show off their slick, daring moves accompanied by the biggest of break beats.
